Marcos Caruso and husband flee the revelry in Rio and spend Carnival in Serra, RJ

On the air in “Travessia”, Marcos Caruso went to spend the carnival far away from the revelry in Rio, where he lives. The 70-year-old actor traveled with her husband, nursing technician Marcos Paiva, 55, to Lumiar, in the Serrana Region of the state of Rio de Janeiro. From there, they posed with two friends in a fun photo using a parrot’s beak.

The two have been together since 2018. The relationship has never been publicly assumed, but it is known to some of Caruso’s friends, such as actresses Vera Holtz, Susana Vieira and Eliane Giardini, who appear in photos with the two. On Paiva’s Instagram profile, which is open, there are several images of them together on romantic trips to places like Paris and Portugal, in addition to intimate records with people closest to them.

Marcos Caruso speaks after quoting ‘partner and partner’ in live: ‘I didn’t assume any bisexuality’

Caruso was married for 20 years to actress Jussara Freire, from whom he separated in 1994. He has two children (Caetano and Mari) and three grandchildren. The actor has stated in interviews that he has been married three other times. One of those relationships was with ballerina Dabi Calichio, with whom he stayed for six years.

In August 2020, Caruso participated in a relaxed live with drag queen Suzy Brasil and made high revelations about sex. During the conversation, the actor declared himself to be a “straight” person when it comes to sexual fantasies and mentioned “partner or partner”.

“Man, I’m too straight, too dad and mom. I always have been. I joke that this more violent thing and sexual fantasies I’m saving for the next incarnation. In this incarnation I’m very straight, you know? And it’s nice to be like that, me I don’t have a problem with not being like that. I think it’s good, I’m satisfied that way. I don’t have this thing of dressing up in something, or imagining a character, I, or the partner who is with me, create a character. No, I like the look. What turns me on is the look”, said Caruso, at the time.

During the chat, the 68-year-old actor said that all four of his ex-wives said that he lacked “footprint” at the H-time, and said that he learned to have this “footprint” when he played the character Leleco in the soap opera “Avenida Brasil” . “I had to learn. I’ve always been very frail, very shy, very ‘grimace’ in life. But when I did Leleco I learned this grip. It’s amazing how the characters teach you things, right?”, said Marcos.

The actor’s revelation took on a huge proportion at the time, with several websites reporting that he had assumed he was bisexual. EXTRA then contacted Marcos Caruso to clarify the matter.

“I didn’t assume anything and I have nothing to say. I did a live with someone I admire, who is Suzy Brasil, talking about several things. My personal life was never exposed. I did the live in the greatest fun and joy . At no time did I speak of bisexuality. If someone is interpreting it that way, it’s their problem. We joked about several things. There is no question from her about this and there is no answer from me about it. The live was very clear. If the person who intuits about what I said, it’s a person’s problem”, he said at the time.

When asked by EXTRA if he is bisexual, Marcos Caruso says: “I don’t have to answer that question”.
